Community Tasting Note

• Brendel Likes this wine: 97 points

  June 4, 2022 - Blind tasted.
  A: deep purple.
  N: perfume, malolactic, medium leather, Bordeaux funk, soup stock, cayenne pepper, celery, oregano. A wonderful nose.
  P: rich, complex, plenty of interesting round silky tannins are present but it is eminently drinkable now. Excellent.
  96-97 pts.
  
  This easily beat out a 2015 Troplong Mondot, 2015 Cantenac Brown and 2018 Cantenac Brown (in that order).
